#BESMove2023: Animal and human movements and their interactions
The Movement Ecology Special Interest Group’s Annual Meeting is now open for abstract submission and registration! The popular conference will move to St Andrews this year, under the theme of animal and human movements and their interactions.
With a series of plenaries, invited and contributed talks, highlight topics talks, posters, and social events, the Movement SIG wants to bring together researchers, practicioners and students interested in quantifying and understanding animal or human movements and their interactions.
“Delegates can attend with or without a contributed talk or poster and the event aims to give an opportunity to discover the latest developments in the field, establish new contacts and discuss new ideas. Many exciting projects, papers, special features and successful grant applications were first started during our previous events, so do not miss this one!” – Movement Ecology SIG
